For those who had their interview already, did they say they would release their decision 4-6 weeks after the interview? I am not sure if I remember correctly

Yeah. I also remember they say 4-5 weeks after the interview and told us to email them if we do not receive an update by 5 weeks after the interview. But it seems like their first decisions were much later than other schools like November.

Seems like their first decision date last year was December 20 despite them informing applicants that the decisions would be released after 4-6 wks... but not too sure about this year

For those who have been accepted, did the decision come within the 4-6 week given time frame? Today would be 5 weeks from my interview, should I expect a decision by next week or is it taking them a little longer?

I think the wave of R's is about to start. also is there a way to check the status of your application/communications in the portal? Cornell and keck are the only ones I know who use this portal as opposed to the normal one

Not to make you neurotic but mine was. I didn't notice until a month before deadline but my secondary had the photo uploaded but I had to apparently submit the photo again. Once I did that I finally got the email that my secondary was completed.

Yes if you got the email about state licensure regulations or whatever then yes that serves as confirmation. I think it says it in it. Either way I called to make sure so you should be good if you got that
